OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Power-Up & Pre-Heat
•
A red indicator next to the on/off switch indicates when the power switch is on and the cabinet has power. It will
stay lit until the cabinet is turned off. Turn the cabinet on and adjust the thermostat to the desired setting. The
thermometer indicates the internal cabinet temperature. A second red indicator light is located between the
thermostat and the thermometer and indicates when the thermostat cycles on to energize the air element (to
increase the cabinet temperature). When this light is not illuminated, it means the cabinet has reached the preset
temperature level. It is normal for the thermostat to cycle on and off as the cabinet is operating.
1. Set the temperature control to a 6 or 7 setting. This should produce a cabinet temperature of 150° F (66° C) to
170° F (77° C) after allowing the cabinet to preheat for 45-60 minutes. Allow the cabinet to pre-heat without food.
The time required to reach the desired temperature is dependent on the set point, the size of the cabinet, the
door type (solid or clear) and the temperature of the room the cabinet is in. To change the temperature, turn the
temperature control knob. About a half hour after adjusting the temperature control knob, the thermometer should
indicate the new cabinet temperature.
•
At the end of the operating day, it is not necessary to disrupt the temperature setting to turn the cabinet off. By
switching the power switch off, the cabinet is no longer operating. When resuming operations, switch the power
on and the cabinet will attain the preset temperature level.
Warning:
Follow all food safety guidelines. Pre-heat the cabinet to the desired temperature before putting cooked, hot
food into the cabinet. This is not a re-thermalization cabinet. Food must be at the appropriate temperature
before being placed into this cabinet.
2. Your C5 6 Series cabinet is capable of creating some humid air. As you operate the cabinet and open and close
the door(s), condensation may form on the inside surfaces of the cabinet. Some dripping of water may occur to
the outside of the cabinet particularly at the door seals. Water may also drip off opened doors onto the floor.
Caution:
Water dripping onto the floor from open doors can be a slip hazard.
Warning:
Some surfaces, water and escaping vapor can be hot enough to burn. Use caution when opening doors and
working in and around this cabinet.
3. The cabinet control will “remember” its setting when the cabinet is turned off. Therefore, when the unit is turned
on the setting will be the same as it was during the previous use.
4. A red indicator light next to the temperature control indicates when the temperature heater element is
energized. As the control setting is adjusted, it may take a few moments for the status of the indicator light to
reflect the new control setting and cabinet condition depending on when in the control cycle the setting
is changed.
